Energy vessels.

Accurate Cubic Measurement which is commonly referred to as CBM or M3 should be provided.
Customs has allowed the carrier to submit a CBM of .01 CBM if the CBM was
missing on the shipping instructions. Philippine Customs will now begin to scrutinize this
information and incorrect data could be penalized up to USD $500.

In addition please provide a complete and detailed commodity description. General commodity
